"I'll just say that the specific Israeli-Palestinian conflict is relatively recent"

Hi Leor! Thank you. Ah, I bang out these comments pretty quickly because I'm usually having so many of these conversations at once, so maybe I wasn't clear here. But I didn't mean to imply that the Israelis and Palestinians have hated each other since time immemorial, I just meant to give an example of people hating each other for bad reasons. Same with the Tutsi and the Hutu.

I’ve found Can We Talk About Israel? to be a useful guide on this. The history of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict extends much further back than I realized.
